The seminar includes an extensive practical component, enabling acupuncture practitioners to confidently and effectively apply acupuncture and osteopathic techniques in their clinical practice from the very first day after the seminar.
Dr. Umberto Mazzanti: “Musculoskeletal pain is one of the most common reasons for consultation in my clinical practice.
In my experience, acupuncture and osteopathic medicine are two effective approaches that can complement each other synergistically in the treatment of musculoskeletal pain.
Patients often report pain that is localized to a small area or more diffusely distributed around a joint, sometimes accompanied by stiffness and restricted movement. In such cases, it can be challenging to identify the specific acupuncture channel involved.
Osteopathic manipulative treatment aims to restore the physiological position and mobility of the joints, reduce pain and movement restrictions, and facilitate the identification of the acupuncture channel that should be treated”.
